I really enjoyed it, but obviously not for everyone.

Rating: Null/10 (20 November 2003)

I was really excited for this movie to come out, and it did not disappoint me. I'm a fan of old-school horror, such as the original Night of the Living Dead, but not of gore-for-the-sake-of-gore fests like it's disappointing sequel Dawn of the Dead. This movie, obviously hated by a lot of people, gets high marks for me for a few reasons. Mainly, the whole overall feel of the movie is very creepy and you feel on edge watching it even when you think the characters are probably safe. This is a welcome departure from horror movies that just scare you by going from one 'jump scene' to the next or making you see people's guts get spilled. Also, although the concept is not original (see Charlton Heston's The Omega Man) I think it is well done in this film. If you don't like indie-style flicks (this was shot with digital film) and like your zombies to be slow-moving and brain-feeding, than this isn't for you. If you're sick of stupid teen horror movies like I Know What You Did Last Summer and Jeepers Creepers, then rent this on DVD and get ready for something different.
